| Post subject: | Build from scratch |
Been lurking for about a week--thx for all the great info. Looks like I need to buid a system...planning on going from scratch, but I need some definite answers to some REAL basics. Think I'll use an ASUS A7N8X-VM which (evidently) has TV-out and 5.1 sound built on. I'll probably go ahead and use the PVR-350 as well. Check me for stupidity (I've never had a PVR of any type): 1. So I should be able to record a program (on the 350) while I watch a pre-recorded program via the ASUS tv-out, right? 2. If I added a second PVR-350 (or 250), I could watch a live program with the pause/replay features (on one 350) while I record a second program with the second 350, right? 3. In the future, the PVR350's tv-out will become operational (driver-wise, or whatever), and if I so choose, I can switch from the ASUS dongle to the PVR-350 output, right? Thanks for your help with the newbie questions! --Tan |

Quote: 3.

But if it becomes stable and gets included then yes you would switch to using the pvr350 for tvout instead of the onboard. Quote: Thanks for your help with the newbie questions!
